I've had these little white spots or bumps on the inside of my thighs for about 10 days now, and they're super itchy. I've tried using calamine lotion, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. They aren't exactly pimples, just these annoying white spots. Any idea what might be causing this or how I can get some relief?

Based on your description, a fungal infection like tinea cruris or irritation from sweatfriction is likely. Start with an antifungal cream and maintain good hygiene. If it doesnt improve within a week or worsens, consult a dermatologist for a precise diagnosis and stronger medications,

Im 17 and I've got these white spots that arent super noticeable, but I really want to get rid of them. Would using Clinsol gel help with this?

I'm really worried about this rash I've been dealing with. It started around my panty line and under my bust. I used a skin cream that my doctor recommended, and it seemed to help, but then the rash came back. Now my skin looks like it's healing from a burn. It's been going on for three months now. What should I do?
Since you have been suffering for 3 months, it is important to consider a different approach. This sounds like a case of fungal infection, possibly a persistent one. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily on the affected areas for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks can also help clear the infection completely. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to aid in the healing process.
